Nearly ten years ago, Ratan N Tata and I met for dinner in Los Angeles after having been introduced to each other by a dear mutual friend, Roy Doumani of UCLA. That night sparked in me an excitement about India as much as it did awe about sharing a meal with Tata. His vision and passion about a new entrepreneurial India was contagious. He spoke vibrantly, full of details, his words coming quickly. I, on the other hand, spoke very little during the evening. My thoughts bubbled. I couldn’t stop thinking about the opportunity that India presented.
